Hey Vancouver, I’m heading your way this Saturday and Sunday for the loveliest comic arts festival on the West Coast: VanCAF!

You can find me at Table C11 with copies of my new book Baggywrinkles: a Lubber’s Guide to Life at Sea,along with maaaany other delightful goodies. Just look at these fresh, fresh books!
